14 ADMINISTRATION OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION.

In the privately controlled institutions 93 have a combined department
while 14 have separate departments. This represents 86% with combined
departments.

In the state teachers colleges 33 have combined departments with 1
having athletics in a separate department. This represents 97% with com-
bined departments.

The three groups combined show a total of 171 with physical educa-
tion and intercollegiate athletics in same department, and 29 with athletics
in a separate department. This represents 85% of the total institutions
having a combined department of physical education and intercollegiate
athletics and 15% with separate departments. The study made in 1924
shows the total institutions with 78% having a combined department of
physical education and intercollegiate athletics. If combining the work
of physical education and intercollegiate athletics will improve our athle-
tics, then there has been a decided gain since 1924.

III. Control of Intercollegiate Athletics.

The administrative control of intercollegiate athletics has been much
discussed in recent years. This study shows that there have been some
changes made in the control of athletics since the study made in 1924. The
opponents of intercollegiate athletics have pointed out the methods of con-
trol of athletics as one of the causes of over-emphasis. Faculty members
have thot that if the administration of athletics were placed under a
faculty committee, many of the objections would be removed. In the study
of 1928 the administrators thot it best to have an advisory committee to
administer athletics. Others felt that the best plan was to secure the right
man as head of the department to administer them. They were more united
in their judgment that it was best to have all committee members from
inside the institution.

Intercollegiate athletics are administered in four general ways. 1.
Faculty committee. 2. Faculty and student committee. 3. Faculty, student,
alumni and trustee committee. 4. By head of department as other de2part-
ments in the institution.

The following tables will show the make-up of the committees that
control athletics in the institutions named. In a few cases the numbers of
each group were not given, and in a few more the groups making up the
committee were not designated. In the legend of the tables; Fac. stands for
faculty. Stud. for students. Trus. for trustees.
